Thank you for the ask!🙏Same to you! Take care! xoxo

There are a few reasons that all contributed to the final decision.

Egen is an excellent judge of character. He's exceptional at delegating his massive fleet down to the minute detail because of his uncanny ability to read others and understand them. He deciphered just how much Eiren was actually told about their meeting within seconds of meeting her. Ignorance is not an excuse on Ornthon, but this is Earth. That strictness is more Andelle's style.

He genuinely adores that awful photo of her on Greetup. It'll come up more in Love Limitless, but a quirk of Egen's, is that all photos he has of his loved ones are the worst pictures of them imaginable. Blurry, out of focus, unflattering, taking during borderline questionable activities, etc.

He was further endeared, and informed on what to expect when meeting Eiren, through various interactions with Lynne on GreetUp. Egen has a particular fondness for people who are spoken of highly by others in a truly genuine, affection-riddled way. Instead of the laundry list of credentials kinda way as is common on Ornthon.

Personal philosophy. That Eiren did not lie to him with actual malicious intent is important.

Those are just a few that come to mind! But I'm not here to author-check anyone's headcanons. Be free!! Imagine what you like~

we know Ornthonians are planet conquerors. 👀 what are their roles in battle?

Egen did mention he bled for his people, so that got me thinking-battle scars! how physically scarred are the three? maybe a story behind some particularly gnarly looking ones? do they still hurt, maybe on occasion, or does that particular scar only look like it hurts? 👀 (i HC Nabo has one on his thigh, if anyone must know and hasn’t seen ✨That One Fanart✨ i drew! the enemy was trying to snipe Andy and missed horribly LMAO)

👽WELCOME, WELCOME, AS ALWAYS!!

Egen's role is functionally high command. Unless there is potential for the encountered forces to be particularly formidable, he typically does not lead the charge. The bulk of his time is spent guiding the fleet as a whole and doing performance management. Acting as a type of omnipresent finer-detail, weakness pinpointing, eye above the battlefield to guide and advise his people as necessary.

Training within Egen's fleet is quite rigorous, and he has an uncanny ability to determine a person's best assets, skills, and desires, and then place them appropriately. Since performance reviews guarantee a one-on-one meeting with him, many ornthonians joined his faction to have a direct line to him. That shared, the flip side of this is that Egen is quite attached to his people. Nobody in his fleet is expendable. He takes part in extractions so that he can bring each and every one of them home in the best condition possible (circumstances given)---regardless of the risk to himself.

Nabo is a proper general. He prefers to be on the ground at every opportunity. The broader strokes of tactics battle to battle are his responsibility. Additionally, both congratulatory, disciplinary, and similar corrective actions are also his wheelhouse. Because of this he is the most unpopular of their trio amongst fleet members. Once Egen's the official ruler of Ornthon Nabo will be in charge of the general welfare of Ornthonians (think any firm decisions that alter or determine the quality of life for the populace). Since he shows virtually no visible enthusiasm for the mundane, many speculate in private that his real position is something else.

Andelle does his absolute best to never visit the battlefield. He gathers all the information and predominantly manages logistics. Everything to do with funding, distribution, integration, upkeep, maintaining their armory and adding new tech to it, etc. are his responsibilities. He gathers all the intimate detail of the planets before approach along with knowledge about enemy supply lines, allies, culture, geography, etc. While espionage is part of his duties, he is not the spymaster of Egen's fleet. It is one of the other two, but to this day, he's uncertain whether it's Nabo or Egen.

As for scars, Andelle has exactly one, Nabo has several, and Egen has the most.

As for stories on them, hmm. Egen's most gnarly one is probably the most noteworthy. I'll place it under a read more in case someone doesn't want spoilers.
